An end to needles in the couch....maybe


Whenever I sit on the couch and embroider and I have to change thread I always stick the needle in the couch or set it in my lap, then of course I spend 2-3 minutes looking for the stupid needle an hoping that I don't jam it into my thigh or accidentally step on it. I had a adjustable ring base from an old Martha Stewart craft kit I didn't finish, so I made a little pincushion out of a bit of sweater I felted and stuck it on there with apoxy. Of course now the problem is remembering to use them. I still ended up searching for a lost needle last night with the pincushion ring I forgot to put on sitting lonley on the coffee table.

I made a few more for the craft fair this weekend, we'll see if anyone else thinks they are as cute as I do.
